There was published a manual titled "Inorganic Chemistry nutrients", written by the Head of the Department of General and Inorganic Chemistry of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering Dr. Sci. O.O. Andriyko. The manual considered chemical elements that play an important role in biological systems, as well as elements, combinations of which pose a threat to biological systems. It is intended for the first year students of the higher technical education, whose future specialization is related to biotechnology, ecology, environmental protection.
In the teaching of inorganic chemistry at institutes of technology a difficult problem is choosing of the actual material that students of certain field of studying have to learn because they needs to study more the elements, combinations and processes which they will face in their future practice. Important is also the problem of correlation between the theoretical and factual material.
The author solved these problems because of the experience, which he had got when he lectured on general and inorganic chemistry for the first-year students of the Faculty of Biotechnology and Bioengineering of NTUU "KPI". The material is accommodated to performance laboratory work, which is necessary in the course of inorganic chemistry. The manual may also be useful for chemistry teachers of secondary schools, colleges and higher educational institutions of Ukraine. We should admit that it is the first time when such manual is published in Ukraine.
